ASCOT data from the 1981 cooling-tower plume experiments in The Geyers geothermal area

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5244769
A listing of the data acquired during the ASCOT cooling tower plume field experiments conducted in The Geysers geothermal area during August 1981 is provided. These experiments were designed to acquire the data needed to evaluate existing plume rise models and atmospheric transport and dispersion models for improving the capabilities for predicting the air quality impact for geothermal power plants during nocturnal drainage and daytime limited vertical mixing situations. Data included in this volume are tethersonde data, minisonde data, and acoustic sounder data. Separate abstracts were prepared for two papers.
